For nearly 15 years, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Tower and surgical assistant and aesthetician Katie Kershaw have watched the same story play out — a patient invests in a skincare line claiming medical-grade results, only to find it falls short, causes irritation, or simply can’t be used consistently enough to matter.

So they built it themselves.

In 2022, they founded James Kace MD Skincare. The name is personal: James comes from Katie's eldest son, Braxton James, and Kace from her youngest, Kace Charles. A brand named after the two people who matter most, and built on the belief that meaningful skin transformation comes from the habits we practice consistently — because what we do daily has far more impact than what we do occasionally.

Every James Kace MD formulation was developed by a team of PhD microbiologists and scientists with over 40 years of pharmaceutical-grade skincare manufacturing experience. Each product is manufactured in an FDA-registered, ISO 22716 and GMP-certified facility, regularly inspected by the FDA and independent third parties. Pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing is not a marketing term. It is a standard — one that governs ingredient purity, concentration accuracy, stability testing, and production controls that most skincare brands never operate under.

The result is pharmaceutical-grade skincare, engineered for daily clinical transformation.

This is where luxury meets efficacy.
